Convincing, but no thanks. I don’t need 60 minifigs. Knowing my luck, I’ll get 3 different ones and the rest will be duplicates!
for a sealed box it is actually a great deal (works out at about 2.80 euro per pack).
I'm in for a box. This is a significant savings and I'm excited for this series.

That isn’t possible- the boxes contain fixed numbers of each figure ;)

It is with my luck. Somehow, the machines that organise them will malfunction or the guy who packs them will think that they are having a good day and want to spoil someone else's day. Or..... I don't know, it will just happen. ;)
Done and ordered. Cheers. It’s a better deal than last year. And the series is better as well. A no-brainer, as I prefer spending a bit more than having to fiddle around with the bags in the shop. Now if only we knew the distribution of the different figures per box.
Order placed, very good deal considering the normal rrp and takes the stress out of feeling the bags, plus it’s good to avoid that anyway these days with the coronavirus situation being ever present. Ordered from minifigure maddness previously on several occasions and had excellent experience with them, very happy to do business with them again. :)
Has anyone purchased from these guys before? Is this legit? How is it so cheap? It seems too good to be true.
@MaxA I ordered once last year for series 19. Worked perfectly fine, speedy delivery via dhl. The price? Well they buy bulk and so get like any other shop better prices. Be aware: they are based in Ireland. Great news for EU customers but I assume you have to pay customs tax.
I hopenit is OK to link to other sites: here is apparently the distribution of figures in the box:

For all those with limited french, there is a pic as well.

Unless this is different from how the DC Series two pre-order went, no its not. They shipped 60 unopened/sealed/new packs. I got one full set and about 6 or 7 of the same figs for 2 or 3 characters and then 3-4 duplicates of the rest.
Don't get me wrong, its a great deal, but no guarantee of a the same distro of an unopened sealed box.
^ Indeed. That is my understanding and if, @JasonBricksHD, they sent you something different you should complain.
Even though I am ordering from the US, they still are charging a 31.60 VAT. Order killer for me.

I've emailed them to ask if they adjust on VAT for orders outside EU: I'm in Canada and would have to pay duties, don't want to get double taxed
Anyone know the box distribution yet?

I ordered the DC series and got two boxes of 30. Inside were 2 full sets (so 1 full set per box) and then maybe 10 of Superman, same of Aquaman, a bunch of Jokers and Cheetahs. The box was for me and two friends, so I didn't even walk away with half a full series. I still have all the duplicates in a box, and had to go and root through bags in the store anyway.
Unless I can get a guarantee that this won't happen again, I can't order the full series this way again.
Any ideas on the best offer for getting 1 of each?

ebay-kleinanzeigen is good way to participate in group buys or to get a complete set from someone who got a box.
